Opportunity presents itself here. 217 W. Cambourne is a piece of Ferndale history, for sale today. This 2 story Centennial Craftsman Bungalow is located right downtown, at the center of all the events, festivities, shopping, dining, etc... Old house features abound, along with a few surprises! The large, covered front sitting porch invites you & yours to relax, pass some time, & enjoy the life all around you. Inside, there is a vestibule leading to the living room which features an interior wall fireplace, high ceilings, bright windows, & neutral decor. The dining room is appropriately generous for a home of this vintage and features a newer door wall to the rear exterior deck. (which needs attention). There is a “Very Brady Kitchen” that is so far out, it’s in! The adj. breakfast area means renovating without a bump out! The upper level contains all 3 bedrooms, the full bath (double sinks - very blue), as well as a bonus room, originally a “sleeping porch” for hot summer nights, now it can be whatever you want! The lower level is functional, has a rec room area, a conveniently located lavatory, workbench space & lots of storage. The furnace & C/A are newer. Outside, the large lot, (50 x 137), lot leaves plenty of room for expansions, additions, or, down the road, possible redevelopment! The longtime owner will miss the neighbors & the central location most but will be glad to see the next round of investment go into this proud & strong home. Don’t be shy, ”Make Home Here”
